John has been waiting for this day for a long time, and from the first day he became the commander of the Space Force, he began to plan the era of real power in the Space Force.

Originally, he was the deputy chief of staff of the Air Force, but he didn't expect to suddenly become the commander of the Space Force, but the Space Force was poor and white, and there was nothing, and the commander was just a powerful name, and in terms of actual power, he was not as powerful as his original deputy chief of staff of the Air Force.

But it is impossible to transfer back again, so he can only seek the future of the Space Force and turn the Space Force into a huge real power organization like the Air Force.

But in reality, space is huge, but the Space Force can't even be big.

Other units have all kinds of weapons, all kinds of fighters, all kinds of funds, and their space force has the right to use a bunch of satellites, and they don't even belong to them, they belong to NASA.

There are also astronauts, who are not their "warriors", they are also "warriors" of NASA.

This is outrageous.

Even the legendary orbital bomber "X-37B" does not belong to them, since it is still under development and is now only at the testing stage.

It's like a warship, before it was officially delivered to the Navy, belonged to a shipyard.

But he didn't give up, cough, in fact, it was useless to give up, so he could only wait for the opportunity.

He was not idle when he was waiting for the opportunity, he went through all the historical materials about spaceflight, even the future space program.

At that time, he ran to NASA every day.

You know, he is the commander of the Space Force.

Those who don't know, may think that he is an employee of NASA.

It's actually quite sad.

When he saw a large number of abandoned spacecraft programs, he longed to travel back in time and strangle the project director at the time.

If those projects hadn't been abandoned, perhaps the current Space Force would have become the most powerful force in the world.

At the same time, he is also following the world's major space events, wanting to see if there is any country that will have a huge impact on Merrican's space interests.

Small impact is not enough, it must be a huge impact, and a small impact is simply not enough to change the attitude of the president and Congress.

As a result, there is no one in the world who can fight, and everyone is very honest!

Just when he was planning to secretly leak some technology to Tianxia and let Tianxia rush to achieve his goal, the Navigator Company suddenly made a big news.

"Dart X" flew into space.

At that time, he shouted in his heart, "This is the !!."

So according to the plan he had perfected repeatedly, he immediately set to action.

This is where we are now.

While the Goddess of Victory was already watching him, the video of "Dart X" re-entering the atmosphere and smoothly stopping on the Navigator runway put him directly in front of the Goddess of Victory, making the Goddess look at him up close, and even smile at him.

Although the "Dart X" returned after less than ten hours in space, it was far from the "X-37B" operating time record in orbit, because the qualified spacecraft of the Navigator company did not have solar wings and could not replenish power in space, Cromwell, a senior researcher, also said that this is only a test machine and can be equipped with solar wings at any time......

and weapons.

And the "Dart X" is fine even if it is not equipped with solar wings, a few hours is enough time to do a lot of things.

It can be towed to the end of the runway at any time, then refueled and lifted off into orbit in space.

All of this can be done in less than three hours.

That is, within three hours from the time the order is given, it can strike at any point on the planet.

The "X-37B" will not work, unless it has been in orbit in space, otherwise it will have to be counted in "weeks" from the ground into space.

But it can't stay in space orbit all the time, and if it is upgraded to a space fighter, then its structure will be much more complex than that of a normal artificial satellite, and it will need to be maintained frequently.

If you don't return to the ground, you'll need to maintain it in orbit, but Merriken doesn't have the ability to maintain fighter jets in space, which the old ISS doesn't have.

The video of the critical moment and the previous horror rendering directly made the congressional lords make up their minds.

Even if NASA can't be fully classified into the Space Force, some of it needs to be included in the Space Force, and the rest will have to cooperate deeply with the Space Force.

On the surface, NASA is still a scientific research institution, but in reality, most of the institutions have to serve military purposes, and it is no longer as simple as manufacturing and launching military satellites.

In addition, the "X-37B" will be immediately transformed so that it has the ability to actively attack in the shortest possible time.

Also, the Adventure Star program was launched, but that big guy weighed more than a thousand tons, and it was impossible to build it in a short time, so the main thing was to build its technical verification machine "X-33" in the early stage.

Because this type of aircraft can not take off horizontally on the runway, it can basically benchmark the "space fighter" of the Navigator company.

However, these things must not disclose the true purpose, and in the case that they have not completely torn their faces to the outside world, they need to put on a vest of scientific research.

Moreover, the plan to return to the moon and the manned landing on Mars cannot be stopped, but the official does not do this, and completely outsources it to a private company, and the official plays a leading role.

In this case, there are many things that need to be adjusted, and the most important thing is the issue of funding, which must be tilted in this direction from other aspects.

This is also the reason why the presence of all MPs is needed.

When it comes to aerospace, it is not a simple aerospace project, it will definitely require a billion or 10 billion yuan to be invested in it, and where to move it out is a big problem.

The simplest may be to let the Federal Reserve print money and suck the blood of the whole world directly.

As for the president's proposal to impose sanctions on the Navigator company, the parliamentarians also agreed.

To sanction, the first thing is to disqualify the other party from participating in the bidding for the moon landing.

Although they have already opened another lunar landing program internally, and the previous framework has been thrown away, the official news has not yet been officially released, so the bidding qualification for the lunar landing program of the Navigator company is still there.

But in this situation, if you want to sanction, you must issue an official statement, but this statement cannot be issued directly, and you have to find a reason not to put the pot on Merrican's head.

After that, the official sanctions were imposed.

This needs to be decided after the meeting, and the space agency will hold its own meeting to study and decide.

"Okay, then the first bill: the framework for NASA to access the Space Force ......"

The speaker looked at everyone and said, "Let's raise your hands and vote." ”

………………

Merrican is certainly not the only one who pays attention to the test flight of the Navigator "Dart X", and it is not only Merrican who thinks of special uses.

Tianxia is also always paying attention.

The sunset hangs in the sky, and the sunset reflects the clouds in gold and the sky in red, which is extremely beautiful.

The Tianxia Space Agency and the Ministry of Defense are also holding a joint meeting, and they also watched the pleasing return of "Dart X".

It's just that the content of their meeting is much easier, which comes from their in-depth cooperative relationship with the boss of the Navigator company, so that they can directly ask Tang Chao for some relevant information.

The information obtained was naturally very positive, and even Tang Chao planned to sell them relevant technology at the beginning, but the official could not be used for commercial purposes, so he could only use it for his own use.

Whether it's using this technology to develop a real space fighter or something, he doesn't care, as long as he doesn't grab the Navigator's commercial market.

Naturally, this is no problem, not only will it not seize the commercial market, but one will be ordered as a tool for astronauts to travel between the space station and the ground.

Although the Tianxia Space Agency has a new manned spacecraft, the Navigator spaceplane ...... It's cheap!

The Tianxia Space Agency, which lives a careful life, is the best at settling accounts.

And the official also reciprocated, in addition to the normal trading harvest, the official also told Tang Chao to let him be careful of Merriken during this time.

On my side, I have paid attention to the military use of "Dart X", and it is impossible for Merriken, the largest military organization on the planet, not to pay attention to this situation.

If Tang Chao was in a small country, someone might have come to "visit" by now.
